Lawrence to Portsmouth is about 40 miles up toward the New Hampshire Seacoast on Route 1, roughly fifty minutes, and the same crew loads in Lawrence and unloads at the coast: one truck, one team, no hand-off.
The flat rate is set before loading, with the mileage folded in
Same movers on our own truck at both the Lawrence and Portsmouth ends
A firm delivery window for downtown or Seacoast waterfront access
Is it one team on both the Lawrence load and the Portsmouth unload?
Yes. A single Simpson Brothers crew handles the Lawrence load and the Portsmouth unload on our own truck, with no hand-off anywhere.
How far is the run to Portsmouth?
About 40 miles up Route 1 to the Seacoast, roughly fifty minutes, so most homes load and deliver the same day.
Are you licensed to move into New Hampshire?
We are. Simpson Brothers Moving is registered with the Massachusetts DPU and US DOT/MC for interstate household moves.
Will the drive to Portsmouth add extra at the door?
No. The 40 miles are priced into your flat rate from the start, so the amount at the door is the amount you signed for.
What protection travels with my things out to the Seacoast?
Every load carries 60 cents a pound as the baseline; add a full-value plan up to a million dollars if you want, and a claim can be filed within nine months.

Great office staff who were very responsive to my questions concerning the move. The movers (Oscar, Coca, Milton and Ricardo) were exceptional. Very nice and pleasant to work with. My household possessions were all delivered without damage.
Sean T. Lawrence, MAGoogle★★★★★
Nate and his team are by far the best movers we've had across 5 military PCS's and their attention to detail and care is second to none! They made sure everything was packed securely and asked detailed questions to ensure what was being packed versus staying with the house. A+ packing and loading!
Flat-rate crews across Lawrence and the Merrimack Valley - three-decker walk-ups, downtown mill lofts, and family homes out to Andover and Methuen, quoted up front.
Top to bottom, we take the whole house - padding each piece, hauling it out, and putting every room back together at the new place, three-decker stairs included.
Downtown apartments, mill-conversion lofts, and tight certificate-of-insurance windows, with the paperwork filed before our truck reaches the building.
Give us a day ahead and the crew crates the entire house in our own boxes and paper - dishes, closets, the attic, all of it - so only the carry-out is left for move day.
Between closings or riding out a Merrimack Valley winter, your household sits in a secure, dry hold; you pay by the week with no long lock-in and no buried fees.
Uprights, spinets, and baby grands ride on proper piano boards with straps and stair rollers, even down the narrowest mill-loft and triple-decker steps.
Already have a rental truck, a trailer, or a moving container and only need the lifting done? Our crew loads and secures every piece so it holds tight on the drive.
Downsizing a longtime home is its own kind of move; we work at your pace, pad and label the pieces that matter, and set the new place up before we head out.
Closing jumped up or a lease ran out with no warning? We hold slots open for same- and next-day jobs and roll a real Simpson truck, never a subcontractor.
Got a gun safe, a slate pool table, a treadmill, or heavy shop equipment? We bring the boards, straps, and stair gear to get it down tight mill stairs in one piece.
Tell us what’s moving and a written figure comes straight back, no in-home survey to schedule, no hard-sell phone call, and nothing bolted on once the day arrives.
Confirm the plan
A few days ahead, your dispatcher rings to lock in the date, both addresses, and anything awkward, so the crew rolls up already knowing about the stairs, the piano, and where to put the truck.
Loading day
Before anything moves, your crew chief walks the rooms, lays runners over the floors and doorways, wraps every item, then stacks the truck in the order it will be unloaded at the other end.
At the new home
Every box goes to the room it belongs in, whatever we took apart gets rebuilt, and the empty cartons ride out with us if you would rather not deal with them.
Final walk-through
We walk the home with you one last time to make sure everything sits where you want it, and the total on the paperwork is exactly what you pay. Welcome home.
Honest rates and a crew you can rely on
Why the neighbors keep coming back
Want a Lawrence mover who arrives on schedule and does the work properly? That’s us. Households up and down the Merrimack Valley return to Simpson Brothers Moving job after job because every one of them delivers:
One flat price, written down before we lift a thing
One flat price in writing, and a Lawrence crew that shows up when it says it will and treats your home like its own. One message is all it takes to get your free, no-pressure estimate.
